Medals and Trophies

Ah, eisteddfods. (I know, I know but eisteddfodau sounds so odd!)

Over the years, our children participated in lots of eisteddfods in the Blue Mountains and Penrith, while we lived in Katoomba and then Blaxland.

And sometimes they won prizes. Usually medals and trophies, but when they were older, they did also win some money. You know the drill: Mum pays the entry fee, but you collect the winnings.

Our son Justin had a creative idea for displaying all the dust-gathering awards.



And a very cooperative golden retriever called Zac.

I wonder what Bathurst Eisteddfod students do with their medals and trophies?
